The battle꧒ for the lead consisted of Tommy Bridewell, Jason O’Halloran, Tarran Mackenzie, Danny Buchan and Gino Rea during the early stages. 

However, that became four when Buchan highsided aftꦬer oil from his SYNETIQ BMW caught onto his rear tyre. 

A red flag was brought out a🐓fter Lee Jackson 🌞and Andrew Irwin also crashed on the leaked oil. 

When the revised 5 lap sprint began, Mackenzie🅰 held off Bridewell by the slender margin of +0.048s, while O’Halloran tওook third - same position as race one. 

Race Two

Jason O’Halloran took the second Bennetts British Superbike win of the w꧃eekend at Snetterton after getting the🦩 better of team-mate Tarran Mackenzie. 

In wha🦹t was a mirror image of Saturday’s race one, the two McAMS Yamaha wer♌e a consistent presence at the front. 

Mackenzie looked favourite to mᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚake it back-to-back victories after leading most of the race, before O’Halloran used the Snetterton back straight to slipstream his way to the inside on the final lap.

Tommy Bridewell was third and very much in the battle for the win, however, the Ducati rider was unable t🌱o use his Panigale V4 R’ power on the straight as was the case in race one to split the Yamaha duo. 

Race One

Tarran Mackenzie takes his third Bennet🦄ts British Superbike win of the se𒀰ason during race one at Snetterton.

After crashing with team-mate Josh Brookes i🉐n qualifying earlier today, things went from bad to worse for Christian Iddon as he fell at Oggies on lap one. 

After an impressive opening lap from pole, Glenn Irwin quickly came under pressure fromﷺ McAMS Yamaha rider Mackenzie. 

The Scottish rider was able 🐎to close up on the Honda rider after finally getting the better of An🌳drew Irwin on lap one.

The race was then flipped on its head on lap five as Glenn Irwin crashed from the lead, while Gino Rea suffered the same fate when Andrew Irwin slowed𒈔 u🌠p due to a mechanical issue - led to Rea hitting Lee Jackson. 

Avoiding all the action out front was championship leader Ja꧟son O’Halloran and team-mate Mackenzie. 

With four laps remaining, Mackenzie got back ahead of O’𝓰Halloran, while Tommy Bridewell was up to third. 

Mackenzie held on for victory, however, Bridewell managed to pip O’Halloran over the line, while Brookes was fou🦋rth and Jackson fifth.
